Itachi 396 Posted January 11 (edited) The Sandanme Game will run again for Hatsu 2025 thanks to Athenayama! For the Sandanme Game, please send Athenayama your list of 15 rikishi from the usual segments of the banzuke. Sd 1-5/6-10/11-15/16-20/21-25/26-30/31-35/36-40/41-45/46-50/51-55/56-60 61-65/66-70/71-80+ (71-80 including tsukedashi if any) Your rikishi earn points for each win, for a kachikoshi record, for leading their group, and a bonus for the best scoring rikishi on each team based on how close they were to the yusho winning record. The result is adjusted so that the best possible score gets a 15-0 result. The drone Mirai knows the future and always selects the best rikishi in each group. This shows us what the best possible score would be at each stage of the game. The drone Genzai picks the most popular rikishi from each group. This drone has tended to score well. The drone Mukashi picks the rikishi in each group who had the best record last basho. This drone isn't expected to score well but sometimes surprises us. Send your entries to Athenayama at xphbobo@yahoo.fr before any of your selections enter the dohyo for their match (and preferably a few hours before that).

Itachi 396 Posted January 11 I adjusted the groups so that there are still 15 picks for the game. The 81-90 was replaced by splitting 61-70 into 61-65 and 66-70. Thank you for trying to keep the game alive, and good luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Athenayama 1,054 Posted January 24 I apologize for the lack of updates. I guess we'll have to wait for the final results. It is my first time and I hope next one will be much better if I have to do it again in case Itachi is still too busy. Thanks for your understanding. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Itachi 396 Posted February 2 Thanks to everyone for playing and thanks to Athenayama for keeping the game alive. The drone Mukashi was not plugged in for this basho. It was briefly powered up to break some ties for Genzai and to replace a kyujo pick for whoever took Kawabuchi. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Athenayama 1,054 Posted February 2 Many, many thanks @Itachi for helping and posting the final results! I'll try to do better next time if you are still too busy to run the game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
